Railway Accident Near sydney.

On June 22d q train containing 400 ex-
cursionists for the Hawkesbury met with an
accident at Peat's Ferry shortly after leav-
ing that place The INSTRUMENTATION
pv brake failed The train was too heavy
for the light engine and attained a
velocity OF seventy miles an hour down
the steep decliyity. The guard applied the
brakes, but without avail and points
man seeing the danger Of the whole train
running into the river, turned 1t on to the
siding where it dashed into some trucks.
The two carriages nearest the engine were
telescoped, and the engine fell over the
bank into the river. Wilson, the driver;
Rennie, the engineer; Harry Hankins,
clerk; a young man and two girls (names
unknown) were killed. Fully forty people
were injured.
As soon as the news OF the accident came
to hand, a relief train with doctors was
dispatched to Peat's Ferry. The driver,
Wilson, fell under the engine and was
buried in the river mud. The fireman had
miraculous escape. Three persons died
almost instantaneOusly, and two others
succumbed during the night.
The wounded were taken to Sydney,
some being admitted TO the hospital
Had it not been for the presence OF
mind of the pointsman, the whole train
would have run into the river, and the re-
suit would have been disastrous beyond
contemplation.

PARIS, July 15th.-Sir G. Berry and Sir
Saul Samuel had a conference yesterday
with the directors of the French Postal
Department, on the question of the transit
rates on Australian mails, when it was ar
ranged that the latter should report on
the matter to the Minister of Finance,
whose decision will be given week hence.
The Agents General have therefore modi-
fed their plans, and will now await the
reply of the French Government before
proceeding to Rome. The suggestion of
the Ostend route made by the agents at
the first interview, was used as means of
pressure, and it is now expected that the
concession asked for will be granted. The
French Government does not object to
division of the mail matter, providing the
traffic is guaranteed OF the basis of the
convention OF 1880.

"a sketch of recent events, being a
short account of the events which cul-
minated on June 80, 1887, together with
a full report of the great reform meet
ing" is the title of pamphlet published
by Mr.. A. NJ. Hewitt, Merchant street
1t contains retrospect of the political
history of the Hawaiian Kingdom from
the point of view of those who were in
strumental in bringing about the recent
change OF Constitution, etc. 1t opens
with the advent of Moreno and closes
with the mass meeting, which is com
piled from the Press reports published
the next day. What is perhaps the
most useful feature of the book is the
publication in parallel columns Of the old
and new Constitutions, SO that one can
see at a glance what the innovations
consist of.

ACCORDING to a letter from Mr.. Mar
tin, Hawaiian Consul General to France
and Belgium, the theory known as the
"Tetrahedral collapse" whereby Mr.
Green, the Premier, some years ago ex-
planned the arrangement and forms of
the great continental and ocean masses OF
the earth's surface in his book, "Nestiges
of the Molten Globe" has now been
generally adopted andis currently taught
by the majority of professors Of geology
in France. "The Friend" states, in re-
ply to an inquiry from Mr.. Martin, that
the maps and diagrams for Mr.. Green's
new book on volcanic action are nearly
completed, when the work will at once
go to press. 1t regards the forthcoming
book as one of the most valuable con-
tributions of the period to volcanic
science. 1t is said to be especially full
in facts and able in discussions respect
ing Hawaiian volcanoes.

On the 26th of July a subscription
was to be open for one day only in Eu-
rope and America for a new loan, author
lied by the Directors of the Panama
Canal Company. The shares offered
will have par value of $1,000 900, but
the loan is to be negotiated at discount
of 5712 per cent, so that if all the bonds
are taken the proceeds will amount to
only $42 500, 900. The loan is to run
forty-eight years, with interest at 3 per
cent of the par value. De Lesseps, in a
letter to the shareholders, states that
$40, 900, 600 of the last emission is still on
hand, but that prudence demands new
emission in case of sudden call for
money when political events might
make it difficult of procurement, and in
order to place the company in a position
to resist any attacks of enemies to the
enterprise. He maintains that with the
sum OF $I20,OO0,OO0 authorized by the
Government the canal can be finished,
or, if not entirely completed, will be
open for traffic on the date fixed This
loan will raise the obligations of the
company to nearly $400 200, 900, and the
annual fixed charges with expenses of
administration will become nearly $2O,-
O00, 900. AT this rate $42, 800 900 in cash
will not last very long, even with the adj
dition OF $2O,00O,000 said to be on hand.

Sixteen Persons Examined Yesterday.
 At the United States court room over the postofiee yesterday fourteen young men and two young women were examined with ref erence to their qualifications to serve in the United States employ. The examination was conducted by MT. W. H. Webster of Washington, D. o., as chief examiner, as- sisted by Messrs. Earle, Punderford and Can dee of the New Haven office. Six of those examined were Yale students. The exalnin- ation papers are numbered as the only means of identification, and then each one examined sends his card in sealed letter to Washing ton, with his number on the outside. Six applicants wanted to get into the patent office. They were questioned on physics, technics, mathematics, chemistry and mathematical drawing.
 The general examination for positions in the postoffice were taken by about eight and includes the following subjects: Aritnme- tic, writing, history, science of government, spelling and geography.
 An average standing of 65 per cent. must be obtained by those being examined, other wise their names will not be placed on the eligible list. Among those who presented themselves for examination yesterday morning were Lewis E. Caldwell, the famous coxswain of Yale's 'S5 crew. and G. T. NJ. Shanley, 8 recent graduate of the High school.

LIGHTER INSURANCE RATES.
Tho Boston Underwriters Voluntaril
 Reduce Their Rates.

Tho Boston Underwriters Voluntarily
 Reduce Their Rates.
 BOSTON, May 5.-The fire underwriters of this city, whose organization for mutual pro. lection is known by the name of the Boston Tariff association, to day voluntarily reduced the rates of insurance on the millions of dol lars worth of property contained in the busi- ness portion of Boston. The matter has been under discussion by the association for some time, and although nearly all the members favored the reduction, there was diversity of opinion as to how it should be made and this was not settled until to-day. A number of risks considered extra hazard are excepted from the proposed reduction, which as agreed upon is as follows: On and after May 9, 1887, the rates specifically rated buildings within what is known as the inspection district may be reduced fifteen per cent, on the specifically rated contents of buildings ten per cent; provided, however, that no rates on contents of forty cents premium or under shall be af- fected by this reduction, nor shall any re- duction be made under this rule which would bring the rates of contents below for ty cents. Policies in force are not to have the benefit of this reduction. Before this reduction can go into effect, however, it must be approved by eightH live per cent. of the insurance capital represented in the association, but there seems at present nc doubt but what that percentage will be secured. The underwriters give as theil reason for making this voluntary reduction that they feel that they cap now afford to dc it and that as honorable business men they should treat their customers fairly. While the nominal difference to tho insurance mer is in the vicinity of sa5o, ,OOO yearly in pre- mium receipts it is probable that the actua amount will not equal those figures for it is argued that property owners will take more insurance because it it cheaper.
